This is for the unit and the faction. Now, I know the faction will not be in the game as a normal faction, that's been made clear. I'll get to that in a moment. What I am unclear on is the soviet Yuri unit/psicorps trooper. the FAQ on moddb says the unit will be in the game. However, a dev (forget who) said about a year ago in a match the unit and mind control as a whole won't be present. Which is it, and how will the unit work in-game if it is in? As for the army, It's perfectly understandable they won't be a full faction. However, What about special Co-op matches or crate drops (virus sniper rifle anyone?)? Some of the relatively "easy" Yuri stuff like gatling guns, initiates, non-functional base structures, and maybe even their own engineers/technicians, while leaving the difficult stuff like psychic towers and chaos tech out of the equation. That way, you can still have Yuri without a need for balancing and coding the hard abilities his forces possess. Keep in mind I'm just thorwing out ideas. No one's demanding this be done. Sometimes I get yelled at for far-fetched ideas, hehe.

Many of us, who played or still play Tiberian Sun may remember stumbling across ruined GDI or Nod structures from Tiberian Dawn, most notably the base near Sarajevo in Nod's 5th mission. http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/File:Tiberian_Sun_Beta_Picture_18.jpg I've been thinking: Now that W3D Hub's Tiberium is under development, maybe some of that game's building models could be reused as ruined versions in Tiberian Sun Reborn. They could on one hand serve as eye-candy, either totally abandoned or taken by the Forgotten or tiberian lifeforms. Some damaged (but repairable) or ruined TD-era vehicles could be scattered throughout those bases, at least the Mammoth MK I. On the other hand, they could also be used for objective or coop maps. For example missions, in which you have to gain or keep control of an abandoned TD-era base or protect or drive off a salvage team. "Time bomb" (similar to "Industrial One") or "Rain in the Night 2" could be used for those maps, since they're based on TD-songs. I remember that about 6 or so years ago, there was a map for Reborn in development, in which the ruined Nod temple near Sarajevo played an important role. At this moment, I'm not sure whether those ruined building should have ruined interiors or no interiors at all. What do you think about this?
